Lifestyle - The Ringling Museum

The John and Mable Ringling Museum is just a short drive from Tampa, and provides ENDLESS inspiration. If you're local, visit. If you're planning a visit to the Gulf coast of Florida, include a day at Ringling in your plans--as these pictures will confirm, the grounds alone are worth the effort.

To this day, Mable is credited with having one AMAZING rose garden. When they're all in bloom (April or May), we'll return. Two beautiful specimens already in bloom:

Naturally, what's inside isn't bad either. You obviously don't want to engage in any flash photography, but if you're lucky, you'll snag a couple of good ones without it... A few of our favorites:
